Everybody uses Emojis nowadays in social media posts, blogs and their profiles. This means you can also use Emojis to search people online.
Emojis are widely used across the internet nowadays. We use them to lighten up a message, express a sentiment or indicate a certain activity.
What a lot of people don’t know is that you can use them to find people online.
In recruitment, using emojis in your search for candidates can be a powerful way to create very targeted searches for niche talent pools or to find underrepresented candidates.
Using emojis in an X-ray using Google is the easiest way to source based on Emojis.
And the funny thing is that it actually works!
Pick any category below and try the out examples.
site:linkedin.com/in 👩💻 engineer
site:linkedin.com/in 👩🏼💻 engineer
site:linkedin.com/in (👨🔬 OR 👨🏻🔬 OR 👨🏼🔬 OR 👨🏿🔬)
site:linkedin.com/in (👨🔬 OR 👨🏻🔬 OR 👨🏼🔬 OR 👨🏿🔬 OR 👩🏾🔬 OR 👩🏻🔬 OR 👩🏽🔬 OR 👩🔬)
You can combine your search keywords with contact emojis to find profiles that have their contact details listed. Try the below examples, obviously you can replace "sales executive" with your own keywords.
site:linkedin.com/in "sales executive" 📞
site:linkedin.com/in "sales executive" ☎️
site:linkedin.com/in "sales executive" (☎️ OR 📞)
site:linkedin.com/in "sales executive" 📩
site:linkedin.com/in "sales executive" 📨
site:linkedin.com/in "sales executive" 📧
site:linkedin.com/in "sales executive" (📩 OR 📨 OR 📧)
site:linkedin.com/in "sales executive" (📩 OR 📨 OR 📧 OR ☎️ OR 📞)
You can basically create any combination that you would expect people to use in their profiles. The only thing you need is the right Emoji (and an internet connection 😉).
